It was only one month since Tansy moved into Oakcrest Manor. Everything
inside the building was almost the same as her previous apartment, the
Chestnut Lodge. She loved to live there, but had to leave. Nevertheless, she still kept a copy of key to Chestnut Lodge.
“You must know Susie very well? My previous landlord.”
Tansy asked Jason, when he showed her round. Jason didn’t response promptly, which made Tansy a little bit embarrassed.

200 Oakcrest Drive
Lafayette, LA 70503
It is next to the University of Louisiana campus. About 20+ years ago I
lived there. Nice place.
The only problem is -- if you frequently have friend visitors, car parking
need to be careful. Each apartment only has one parking space.
By the way, the University Place is at walking distance to the UL, but
Campus Crossing is more than walking distance. |

a******e 发帖数: 6689 | 30 interesting story.
借这个帖子顺便讨论点技术上的事儿。用过去时态描写的时候,如果碰到一些事实性的
陈述,比如这个story,如果加上一段关于这个apartment结构的描写,甚至写点事实性
的城市现状什么的,是继续保持过去时态还是转现在时? |
|
|
|
a******e 发帖数: 6689 | 33 没有没有。那句“the thrill is gone"让我突然想起来些时态变化的问题。 |
|
i*********s 发帖数: 2451 | 34 我觉得,用过去时比较保险~
碰到中间穿插事实性描述,比较sure的情形,我会用现在时;不太sure,还是用过去时
,fool-proof,对我来说. |
|
l*r 发帖数: 79569 | 35 大概search了一下,的确是这样的
绝大部分的小说都使用过去时的,这样从讲故事叙述的角度可能更自然些
新近小说特别是网上作品用现在时的比较多,但很多属于实验性质,潮流了一段,很多
作者又回归了。而且如果要发表的话,据说editor一般都会要求改成过去式,有没有高
手确认一下,不是有几位同学上过写作课吗,来说说?
自己的感觉,也是过去时比较顺溜。有人说现在时能造成一种紧张或者身临其境的感觉
,我倒没太觉得。看有人提到Capote的A Christmas Memory是用的现在时,却要用现在
时写,难怪我看的时候有点别扭,当时没有意识到,原来多半是这个时态的原因。。。
不过俺的英文还停留在努力看懂的阶段,完全没有语感,或许其中的妙处没有读出来 |

|
M******y 发帖数: 736 | 39 也分的。除了 Materials & Methods 以外,其它经常用现在时,以显示自己说的是正确
的。比如说:
Fig. X shows blah blah. Tab. Y suggests blah blah.
过去式经常被用来批评别人的。比如说:
Previously , it was believed that... Now we know that actually ...
在 intro 里,总结别人的工作时,想抬高的,可以悄悄用现在完成时或者现在时;想贬
低的,可以搞成过去式。

|
a******e 发帖数: 6689 | 41 嗯,我问的也是creative writing中时态转换的问题,不是说整体故事使用什么时态。
整体肯定多数都是过去时,毕竟说故事的说的都是已经发生过的事情,所以过去时最吻
合。但是说着说着说到一些客观的景物描写或者存在状态,比如说世贸twin tower,"
They do not exit in New York any more." 是应该用现在时还是过去时?
正确
想贬 |
|
a******e 发帖数: 6689 | 42 刚才翻了翻Dan Brown的小说,发现两种用法都有。貌似规律是和叙事交织于一起的客
观描述依然用过去时,但若要强调某些状态的客观性,比如说一个城市有多少人多么著
名,某图书馆藏书多少之类的,就可转用现在时。 |
|
l*r 发帖数: 79569 | 43 恩,被我扯远了哈
昨天search了一下,发现整体时态的使用也有些讨论,就瞎说了几句 |
|
M******y 发帖数: 736 | 44 我用英文时,主要是写学术背景的东西,要清晰和简洁,所以可能和文学创作的规范不
很一样。时态转换,我学的是:要维持一个清晰的 time frame,每次做 time frame s
hifting 的时候,都尽可能用显式转换。比如说:
It happened near the twin towers -- well, now the towers no longer exist in
New York any more -- but by that time they were landmarks of NYC.
用了清晰的 time frame 的转换标志: now 和 by that time。
再比如:Every winter there are some cold days, but in the winter of 2001
every day was bone-chilling for Ann。 |
|
a******e 发帖数: 6689 | 45 明白了,多谢!Dan Brown我查到的那些用现在时态的一般也是文章篇首,陈述一下,
然后转到故事行进。行进里面的再描述就都是过去时了,尽管描述的内容也都是客观存
在的,并且状态持续至今时今日。
